The first time I met Jim Greco was when he came up and shot his Thrasher cover. By now, everyone's seen the switch frontside flip in the Baker video, but not many know about the pain and suffering that went into getting that cover shot. He was up here for over a week. Check the different gear and watch the slams. Say what you want, but Greco's got more dedication and determination than most. The hi-jinx of Jim is truly amazing.

This was really entertaining id really like to see more of this from THRASHER in the future.. Greco is the man!

is that true phelps????
Posted by Noway is gay | November 8, 2007 10:13 AM
The best to come out of New Haven. (Upson is from Seymor)Hope phelps is bullshitting. I wouldn't be surprised either way. I never met anyone who kicked for good.

Posted by MT | November 8, 2007 10:37 AM
That's why "hammers" are lame. A week to land a trick? I'd rather see P-Rod and J-Rodgers land 20 super hard tricks at a spot in one session than that crap.
Posted by Noway | November 8, 2007 11:01 AM
F*CK, I hope that Phelps comment is a gag. Dope is tuff to kick. No matter what you try, its gonna be there. Just like skating, even if you havent skated in years, you see a curb cut, a manny-pad, a bank to wall, etc. it gets you thinking about skating.....when its there, its in you.
If Phelper's right, thats a bummer, but Im still in Greco's corner (regardless of the fact that my sister wants her clothes back).
So long as dude eases himself back in and doesnt go full-on back he'll stay alive. My boys sent me a recent Greco interview when I was in re-hab. His words helped me. I hope his words help him.

wasnt that dude on 21 jump street?
Posted by maynerd | November 8, 2007 11:41 AM
the final land is from 2G but in all the attempts I didn't see the outfit he was wearing from the thrasher cover, with a backwards yellow truck hat, blue knee-hole denims, and leather jacket
Posted by stylites | November 8, 2007 11:55 AM
If he's back on herion he a moron plain and simple. I don't care what stupid crap you had happen in your life or that you were addicted before. If you sticking needles in your arm to catch a buzz your a loser. End of discussion and I no sympathy for such weak minded individuals. That being said I doubt it's true since his recent slap intervies says otherwise.
Posted by fool | November 8, 2007 12:35 PM
fool. please learn some basic grammar before you go on a diatribe.
fool. you sound like a judgmental stupid fuck that needs to jump out a window to prevent yourself from accidentally knocking up your sister while she is unconscious from the roofies that you dropped in her diet coke.
yes, you and her are fat, ugly and stupid. now, go and fuck off you stupid ugly fuck.
p.s., check for typos.
Posted by Frank Rizzo | November 8, 2007 12:58 PM
Poor Frank. Sorry I don't have sympathy for drug addicts and whatever week excuses they have to get back on them. Excuses are for losers winners make it happen. Period. Secondly I could care less if I make typos it's a freaking message board clown. I know your type " I don't do coke I just like the smell of it" Loser.
Posted by fool | November 8, 2007 1:40 PM
Actually,I am a recovering drug addict and the story of Jim falling off the wagon is very distressing fo me. I can't keep myself from slipping though. I'm trying sooo har to be a winner. I like to shoot heroin into my dick. my mom got me hooked at an early age, selling my young ass on the street just to buy our next hit. sorry about acting out Thrasher
reeders, this all just hits a little to close too home. Sorry Frank.
Posted by fool | November 8, 2007 2:13 PM
fool. come on dude. you're "weak" ... (it's not "week" stupid. i hope you get addicted to something some day and can't kick it. lose your possessions, family, girl..or in your case, dude. and i doubt that "something" you'll be addicted to will be skating....fuck off
Posted by jagov | November 8, 2007 2:14 PM
"Fool" - no one starts doing drugs, partying, whatever you want to call it thinking "you know what, Im gonna be a junky". It just progresses to a point where before you know it, there you are.
I'm glad you are such a "winner"....Please forward us the link to the mag covers and board sales you've pulled off puto. If dudes back on dope he needs help, not some nobody condemning him for having fallen off.
Posted by Boogs | November 8, 2007 2:26 PM
shut up jagov and Boogs! just shut the fuck up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by fool | November 8, 2007 2:46 PM
You clowns are justifying doing herion and not knowing you would be addicted. You guys are retarded. People that are crackheads didn't know crack can fuck you up before they did it. What a bunch of pathetic apologists. Just because somebody has talent on skateboard doesn't mean they should get a free pass when they make stupid mistakes. If Guy Mariano is in the next Junk Drawer for getting back on drugs I'll say the same damn thing and he was pretty much the most talented street skater ever.

Hey boogs. Grow a brain. If your standard for humans beings revolves around how good you are on a skateboard you have issues. So Gator was a good guy? Your a moron and an apologist. What does a winning attitude have to do with skate footage? I'm skating everday and raising a family so you better believe i'm winning. A hell of alot more than any smack head is. I'm sorry that you failed at your pipe dream of turning pro skating and now have resort todefending people who are addicted to heroin and coke because they never knew it could happen to them when they were doing it.
Posted by fool | November 8, 2007 3:16 PM
Where is the "nigga please" button on this fuckin computer....
Before you request that I "grow a brain" please make certain to run a fuckin spell check you retard. "humans beings" ?
You are honestly stoops.
No, I do not judge someone based on how well they skate, as I do not judge them based on the mistakes they may have made via drug use. I find it interesting that it is you that judges someone based on negative behavior. Greco never murked no one fool.
Isnt it time for you to ignore your family and go play skateboarding?
Posted by Boogs | November 8, 2007 3:39 PM
thanks for the good advice fool. my new hero is you.
hope that your kid grows up soon and kills you then sleeps with its mother, and then your mother.
just because you knocked up some toothless ho doesn't mean shit. you and you stupid cracker spawn makes me want to wear two condoms at a time. any idiot with half a nut can accomplish what you have. why are writing to twelve year old boys anyway? trolling the net to tap some of that young ass huh? bet that you hang out at the playground wearing a rain coat on sunny days. child services better take away your brood before anything bad happens.
Posted by 'humans beings' | November 8, 2007 3:39 PM
imagine being a pro skater and people you dont even know are typing up the latest personal info on you. crazy that there are that many lifeless weirdos that really care that much. creepy.

Posted by Stoked | November 8, 2007 5:15 PM
I'd say if Burnout isnt' gonna allow comments, then he might as well just start his own blog outside of Thrasher's website. I mean is it just me or is this some prima-donna bullshit? What if I want to comment on how awesome it is, do you think all the comments are gonna be negative on Burnout and if so, then why have it? -endlessBummer.com

Thue rule is. You don't have to make to one they use in the mag. You do have to land it though. The one on the cover isn't the one he made but he did land it so they used it because it was a better photo.
